Mason Moback

(From Simpson Funeral Home)

With deep reverence, we mark the passing of Mason Edward Moback, known fondly as Mase, who left us on September 6th, 2023. 

Mason, with his infectious humor and larger-than-life presence, was born in Webb City, Missouri on October 26th, 1974. His spirit was as vast as the open plains he so dearly loved, embodying the essence of a true cowboy.

Mason's loyalty was as sturdy as the structures he crafted in his work as a carpenter—an artisan who took pride in his trade. His love for his family was his cornerstone, a testament to his generous and loving nature. Mason's laughter was a gift he readily bestowed upon others, a reflection of his innate ability to bring joy to any room he entered.

Mason's vivacious spirit was mirrored in his hobbies. He had a deep affection for horses and harbored dreams of becoming a bull rider. He was an avid bow hunter and fisherman who delighted in the thrill of the catch. His love of pool was a testament to his competitive spirit and his enduring humor. He was a jokester who never missed an opportunity for levity. A verse from Proverbs 17:22, "A cheerful heart is good medicine," encapsulates Mason's approach to life perfectly. He was the embodiment of this verse, spreading good cheer and laughter wherever he went.

Mason is survived by his daughters, Kimberly Webster, Nicole Workman, and Kathleen Heisserer; his mother, Jean Vickers, and stepfather, Mike Vickers; his father, Lee Moback; and stepmother, Rhonda Moback; sisters, Misty Pafu, Kendra Merriman, and Kacey Schmidt; brother, Justin Moback; five adoring grandchildren; his beloved grandmother, Mary Vinyard; and numerous nieces and nephews who all cherished him deeply. Mason was preceded in death by his grandparents, Fred Vinyard, Carl Moback, and Grace Moback.

Visitation will be held on Monday, September 11th, 2023 at 10:00 a.m. at Simpson Funeral Home, 400 West Daugherty Street, Webb City, Missouri, 64870. The service will follow at 11:00 a.m. at the same location. Burial will follow services at Ozark Memorial Park Cemetery in Joplin.

In lieu of flowers the family does suggest memorial donations to the Brain Aneurysm Foundation in memory of Mason.

Services are under the personal care and direction of Simpson Funeral Home. The family encourages relatives and friends to visit www.simpsonfh.com to share photos and memories of Mason.
